Users upload raw photos (no Instagram), tag them (the more the better), and wait for approval. If approved, the photos go on the Foap Market for $10 each, with $5 going to the developers and $5 going to the user.

Since launching less than a month ago in the Nordic countries the app has had over 10,000 downloads and over 40,000 images uploaded

Selling Stock Direct / email from peopleimages

Hi There Luis

Just a quick thank you for registering on our site! We noticed that you havent yet browsed through and downloaded any of our images.
This means that we have failed and not given you what you were looking for! :( We would love to hear how we can do better. Please feel free to tell us what you would like us to improve on we would greatly appreciate that:)

Reply in a short (or long) email with a reason as to why you did not buy anything, and we will review your answer. As a small thank you for just being honest with us, we will credit your account with between $5 and $100. Great feedback and suggestions will result in a bigger bonus, but a one-line simple reason will also be considered.
You can use the amount we give you yourself or give it to a friend or college who uses images for their projects more often.

We look forward to hearing what we did wrong and/or what we can do better. :)


Kind Regards

Bigstock.com / editing multiple images BUG
« on: June 15, 2012, 14:44 »
Hi guys, there a few contributors uploading to BigStock so I want to let you know that there is a bug while editing multiple images, when you are adding categories, it will keep what you have choosen but if you dont submit them straight away they will have automatically categories added which doesnt make much sense once it should have kept the ones you have selected leaving other empty, hope I have made myself clear

had a few rejections because of unproper categories so I was wonder why, just found it..

Dreamstime.com / editorial issues in DT
« on: June 05, 2012, 09:33 »
I would love to understand some agencies but its kind of hard actually.. DT is on the top of that list for sure..

I have recently shoot a rally in Ireland I went to watch, over 50 cars on 3 different places... that said I have uploaded to SS which have approved all of them, same goes for 123RF, DP and a few other too.. only DT has now a new rejection type:

Please submit only those images from this series that fit the event better. We consider that 3-5 images per event can tell the full story, and by submitting less you will certainly focus on quality (this is always preferred) while covering up an event.

another problem is their approval ratio which hurts when we have more rejections..

for the first batch 70 pictures, 34 got rejected.. not to mention they took over 10 days to review them..

yep I know they (rally pics) wont make me rich, no need to tell me

Panthermedia.net / taxes at PantherMedia
« on: April 17, 2012, 06:51 »
few days ago received another payment from PM, have nothing against them actually they are like my 6th or 7th best agency but yesterday saw that my last payment wasnt "correct", so I contact them and now seems that we have 15% taxes taken from our payouts...  >:(

Hello Luis,

due to German tax legisalations, we have to follow an additional rule.

According to 50a of the German Income Tax Act, we have to keep a 15% tax and have to pay that to the German Tax Office. This amount is automatically deducted from your payout.

Additional information will follow in the newsletter next week and also on our "commission" page at:

best regards

123RF / Refunds at 123RF
« on: April 13, 2012, 16:01 »
nothing strange the refunds at 123RF but this one was for 17.41$, a 100MB sale with unlimited seat etc (purchased yesterday and refunded today)

the refunds are quite upsetting, not because of this latest with high $$ but in the way we will never know if the buyer will use it anyway once the picture is on their side.. how agencies deal with this?

Veer / Refunds at VEER

just checked the forum stats and in 6 months MSG went from 10k users to 28k

a lot of people reading but not sharing or participating (not to mention the ones not even registered), this is just a curious fact that shows how stock is far from dead

92
this wont be the poll of 2012 but I believe it may be interesting to see if contributors are looking for more income beside the top 5 agencies, please vote ;D

Alamy.com / Alamy on poll results
« on: February 05, 2012, 12:42 »
would it be too ridiculous to have it up there?

I have been looking more and more into Alamy and all top contributors, average etc seem to be uploading hard there too.. as they have a big RF collection I do believe a poll result would be quite interesting no? honestly I have the feeling that everybody is always hiding their work in Alamy..

hope that this Hasnt been discussed before
